The Catholic Primate of Ireland, Dr. Cullen, bas issued a very lengthy Pastoral! Address, in which he severely condemns Fenianism, in the fullowing terms :—

“As to what is called Fenianism, you are aware that, looking on it as a compound of fol- ly and wickedness, wearing the mask of patri otim to make dupes of the unwary, and as the work of a few fanatics or knaves, wicked enoug! to jeopardize others in order to promote thei

own sordid views, I have repeatedly raised my |

If they had been listened to, w. would not have to regret that so many youn; men are suffering the hardships of prison, anc their families overwhelmed with affliction while their seducers are far away from danze laughing at the simplicity of their dupes, an enjoying the wages of iniquity. But even jt no advice had been given—if you, rev. bret ren, in your affection for your flocks, had not cautioned them against Fenianism, should not those who were called on to join it have raised the following questions :— Who are its leaders’ What publie services have they rendered to the country? What claim have they to demand ger conideave? Would they sacrifice others to promote their own sordid views? Are the men of religion? Are they men remarkable for their sobriety, their good conduct, and »:- tentiou to their own affairs? Have they been successful in business? Are they men to whom we would lend money, or trust the manage- ment of our property? Were they to succee would they be good rulers and good mag trates? Would they better the condition of the

Nay, more, if the | charges lately made against the originators «| the movement had been made known, every one would have been filled with alarm at their introduction into the country; for they are| said to have proposed nothing less than to de | stroy the faith of our people by circulati z| works like those of the impious Voltaire, to| preach up socialism, to seize the property of| those who have any. and to exterminate both the gentry of the country and the Catholic | elergy. Whatever is to be said of such fearful | accusations, which we hope are only found: d on Vague report, it is too certain that the man- agers of the Fenian paper, called the Trish | People, made ita vehicle of scandal, and cir-| culated in its columns most pernicious and poisonous maxims. Fortunately, they had not the wit nor the talents of Voltaire: but ac-| cording to appearances, they did not yield to him in anxiecy to do mischief, and in malice.

About half-past 11, Mrs. McKellar heard a noise in the parlor and called the boys to get up, | that there were robbers inthe house. Jackson heard the alarm, got out of bed and seized his gun, without arousing his bedfellow, deceased's brother, and called out to know who was there, and not receiving an answer, fired at the figure he saw in the dim light.
